DASL (Student Information) Update
In the upcoming 17.2 release a new medical icon will be added to notify users if a student has a life threatening medical alert. The new icon will be a red cross with a white background and will be available across the ProgressBook Suite. For this icon to appear, the life threatening box must be checked on the student alert page (SIS>Student>Medical Alerts)

DataMap has the ability to maintain and store a student’s Intervention information for as long as the student is in your district. This allows teachers and administrators to view the student’s Interventions identifying the progress of the student as well as the areas the student has struggled with without having to dig through accum folders.

Intervention Program are customized by each district. Districts may also choose to include a customized template to automatically populate when the program is selected for a student. Many sample templates are available to be loaded in your district’s DataMap which you may modify to fit your districts needs.

To learn more about the Intervention piece in DataMap or if your district has a template they would like to create, please contact NEOnet. We are more than happy to offer professional development to show your staff how to create a customized template as well as offer assistance when creating unique templates.
